This seems to be a rather ASCII-centric way of thinking about things, though, which I thought py3k was trying to get away from, with unicode being the one and only string type. Maybe it really is the only practical option, but I can understand non-ASCII speakers feeling disappointed. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
